Abstract
Tuberosity fracture is a recognised complication of upper molar extractions. Failure to recognise the signs of a fractured tuberosity, and inadequate immediate management, can result in significant avoidable morbidity for patients. With an ageing population, and tooth retention into later life, such complications will become more commonplace. It is imperative that clinicians are competent at dealing with such complications, to ensure the best possible outcomes for their patients.
